Description

The development and the cross fertilization between the aforementioned science and engineering disciplines have led to a whole range of extremely interesting new research areas known as cognitive informatics and natural intelligence. The International Journal of Cognitive Informatics and Natural Intelligence (IJCINI) encourages submissions that transcends disciplinary boundaries, and is devoted to rapid publication of high quality papers. The themes of IJCINI are natural intelligence, autonomic computing, and neuroinformatics. IJCINI is expected to provide the first forum and platform in the world for researchers, practitioners, and graduate students to investigate cognitive mechanisms and processes of human information processing, and to stimulate the transdisciplinary effort on cognitive informatics and natural intelligent research and engineering applications.

Mission

Cognitive Informatics (CI) is a cutting-edge and multidisciplinary research area that tackles the fundamental problems shared by modern informatics, computation, software engineering, AI, cybernetics, cognitive science, neuropsychology, medical science, systems science, philosophy, linguistics, economics, management science, and life sciences. CI is the transdisciplinary study into the internal information processing mechanisms and processes of the Natural Intelligence (NI) – human brains and minds – and their engineering applications in computing, ICT, and healthcare industries.

The development and the cross fertilization between the aforementioned science and engineering disciplines have led to a whole range of extremely interesting new research areas known as CI and NI. The International Journal of Cognitive Informatics and Natural Intelligence (IJCINI) encourages submissions that transcends disciplinary boundaries, and is devoted to rapid publication of high quality papers. The themes of IJCINI are natural intelligence, autonomic computing, and neuroinformatics. IJCINI is expected to provide the first forum and platform in the world for researchers, practitioners, and graduate students to investigate cognitive mechanisms and processes of human information processing, and to stimulate the transdisciplinary effort on cognitive informatics and natural intelligent research and engineering applications.

Reviews and Testimonials

"Cognitive Informatics is a transdisciplinary research area. Thus, the most interesting aspect of IJCINI is the originality of many of the papers. They show us that the relation of, on one hand, neuroscience, psychology, and other biological disciplines and, on the other hand, computer science, is twofold. The close cooperation and synergy of these areas may help them to unveil new trends that would keep hidden otherwise."
- Fernando Rubio, University Complutense de Madrid, Spain

"The International Journal of Cognitive Informatics and Natural Intelligence is an important resource for researchers to keep up with how the latest developments in a wide variety of disciplines impact the study of cognition and intelligence. The breadth of topics that it covers, as well as the wide range of expertise of tis contributing authors, indicate the interdisciplinary nature of cognitive informatics."
- Michael Dawson, University of Alberta, Canada

"The field of cognitive informatics and natural intelligence sits at the crossroads between neuroscience, psychology, linguistics, and artifical intelligence. The multidisciplinary approach of IJCINI to the study of human information processing and engineering applications in computing has opened new vistas to the understanding of human behavior."
- Brian Bland, Unviersity of Calgary, Canada

Editor(s)-in-Chief Biography

Yingxu Wang
Yingxu Wang is professor of cognitive informatics and software science, President of International Institute of Cognitive Informatics and Cognitive Computing (ICIC), Director of Laboratory for Cognitive Informatics and Cognitive Computing and Director of Laboratory for Denotational Mathematics and Software Science at the University of Calgary. He is a Fellow of WIF (UK), Fellow of ICIC, a P.Eng of Canada, a Senior Member of IEEE and ACM. He received a PhD in Software Engineering from the Nottingham Trent University, UK and a BSc in Electrical Engineering from Shanghai Tiedao University. He has industrial experience since 1972 and has been a full professor since 1994. He was a visiting professor on sabbatical leaves in the Computing Laboratory at Oxford University in 1995, Dept. of Computer Science at Stanford University in 2008, the Berkeley Initiative in Soft Computing (BISC) Lab at University of California, Berkeley in 2008 and MIT (2012), respectively. He is the founder and steering committee chair of the annual IEEE International Conference on Cognitive Informatics and Cognitive Computing (ICCI*CC). He is founding Editor-in-Chief of International Journal of Cognitive Informatics and Natural Intelligence (IJCINI), founding Editor-in-Chief of International Journal of Software Science and Computational Intelligence (IJSSCI), Associate Editor of IEEE Trans on System, Man and Cybernetics (Part A) and associate Editor-in-Chief of Journal of Advanced Mathematics and Applications.

Dr. Wang is the initiator of a few cutting-edge research fields or subject areas such as Cognitive Informatics (CI, the theoretical framework of CI, neuroinformatics, the logical model of the brain (LMB), the layered reference model of the brain (LRMB), the cognitive model of brain informatics (CMBI), the mathematical model of consciousness and the cognitive learning engine); Abstract Intelligence (alpha I); Cognitive Computing (such as cognitive computers, cognitive robots, cognitive agents and cognitive Internet); Denotational Mathematics (i.e., concept algebra, inference algebra, semantic algebra, real-time process algebra, system algebra, granular algebra and visual semantic algebra); Software Science (on unified mathematical models and laws of software, cognitive complexity of software and automatic code generators, the coordinative work organization theory and built-in tests (BITs)); basic studies in Cognitive Linguistics (such as the cognitive linguistic framework, the deductive semantics of languages, deductive grammar of English and the cognitive complexity of online text comprehension). He has published over 130 peer reviewed journal papers, 220+ peer reviewed conference papers and 25 books in cognitive informatics, cognitive computing, software science, denotational mathematics and computational intelligence. He is the recipient of dozens international awards on academic leadership, outstanding contributions, research achievement, best papers and teaching in the last three decades.
